CAMB.AI, a global leader in AI-powered multilingual voice translation and content localization, announced a strategic partnership with Kompact AI by Ziroh Labs, the pioneering CPU-first AI platform that enables large language models to run efficiently on standard CPUs without compromising performance. This collaboration marks a significant milestone in democratizing enterprise AI access, combining CAMB.AI’s industry-leading voice synthesis technology with Kompact AI’s groundbreaking runtime to optimize LLMs for CPUs with no degradation through input and output quality.

The CAMB.AI-Kompact AI partnership represents more than a technical integration, it embodies a shared commitment to democratizing access to advanced AI capabilities. By combining proven voice synthesis technology with revolutionary CPU optimization, the partnership enables organizations worldwide to deploy sophisticated multilingual communication systems without traditional infrastructure barriers.

Strategic Alignment: Shared Vision for Accessible AI

Both companies believe advanced AI should be accessible beyond big-budget enterprises, continuing their legacy of disrupting industry norms:

• CAMB.AI pioneered emotionally authentic multilingual dubbing for live sports with brands like NASCAR, Major League Soccer, YES Network, Australian Open, FanCode and Comcast NBCUniversal.
• Kompact AI proved large language models can deliver top performance on optimized CPU infrastructure, challenging the GPU-centric model.

Transforming Enterprise AI Deployment: From GPU Dependence to CPU Freedom

This partnership represents a paradigm shift in how enterprises deploy and scale AI applications. While the industry has been locked into expensive GPU infrastructure for AI workloads, Kompact AI’s revolutionary CPU-first approach delivers 50% cost reduction in AI inferencing while maintaining full model quality, eliminating the need for quantization or distillation that traditionally compromises accuracy.

“Just as we’ve democratized multilingual communication by making voice translation accessible across 150+ languages, this partnership with Kompact AI democratizes access to powerful AI infrastructure. Enterprises no longer need to choose between performance and accessibility. They can now deploy our MARS7 and BOLI models on standard CPU infrastructure while achieving broadcast-quality results,” said Akshat Prakash, Co-Founder and CTO of CAMB.AI.

Speaking about the partnership Hrishikesh Dewan, Co-Founder & CEO at Ziroh Labs said, “We are excited to enter into a partnership with CAMB.AI. This strategic alliance will create unprecedented opportunities for enterprises to deploy sophisticated AI via Kompact AI without traditional barriers, another step towards facilitating accessibility in an effort to democratize AI. CAMB.AI has a proven track record of delivering broadcast-quality voice synthesis at scale and combined with our CPU-first optimization runtime, this promises to be a gamechanger when deploying multilingual AI models across industries from sports to education to healthcare.”

Technical Excellence: Where Voice AI Meets CPU Innovation

The integration uses Kompact AI’s advanced CPU optimizations and hybrid architecture to run CAMB.AI’s models with exceptional efficiency on standard CPU hardware, solving key enterprise challenges:

• Infrastructure Democratization: Deploy voice translation without costly GPU clusters or cloud GPUs.
• Edge Capability: Enable real-time multilingual translation on edge devices, even offline.
• Scalable Simplicity: Scale voice AI workloads linearly without rising infrastructure costs.

About CAMB.AI

CAMB.AI is building a global content localization infrastructure driven by AI-powered multilingual translation. With the world’s most advanced speech and translation AI capabilities, CAMB.AI enables seamless multilingual communication via video, audio and text, and across 150+ languages – preserving emotion, retaining authenticity and cultural nuance, and making stories accessible to new audiences. Its philosophy: “the Internet was made for English-speakers. It’s time to re-design it for the world.”

The company works with the world’s biggest brands including the Australian Open, Comcast-NBCUniversal, Dentsu, Eurovision Sport, IMAX, MLS, and NASCAR.  Its MARS generative text-to-speech model was the first to be available on AWS Bedrock and the Google Vertex AI Model Garden. Other milestones include the first AI-driven multilingual live sports commentary (in the world, in Europe, in motorsports, and in a press conference); the biggest real-world deployment of AI; and the first Arabic movie to be dubbed using AI. 

CAMB.AI has raised $18.5 million to date and is supported by investors including Comcast NBCUniversal Sports Tech, TRTL Ventures, Oraseya Capital, Courtside Ventures, Ikemori Ventures, 5Point Venture Partners, and Dubai Future District Fund. It has operations in the U.S., Canada, APAC, Europe, the Middle East, and India.
